This was a BIG event - see below for energetics as calculated by the Meteor Physics Group at Western University in Canada.

>> Hi Bill,
>> About the bolide – it was a big one indeed. Got a clear and persistent stratospherically ducted signal on two stations (IS57 and IS56). I based my analysis on the event time reported by various news reports (1500 UT).
> Using the AFTAC period relations, the energy estimate is 3.8 kt (of TNT equivalent), and based on infrasonic data the approximate source coordinates are: 37.6N, 120.5W (Google map attached).
